The Lookout Trail is touted as providing one of the most scenic panoramic views in Gros Morne Park.

 

This strenuous traill starts at the Discovery Center near Woody Point and climbs 350 meters through forests and some alpine meadows to the lookout on a hill top.

From here there are fantastic views of Bonne Bay, the Tablelands and the Long Range Mountains.

 

We hit the Lookout at a hot and sunny afternoon in September 2017 and found that sections of the trail were under construction. The boardwalks over the meadows were fine but especially the steeper parts had become wet, muddy and at times very slippery.

 

We did not make it all the way up to the Lookout but had climbed high enough to enjoy the nice views of Bonne Bay and the Tablelands. And the bog meadows were already changing to the autumn colors.
